DILLARD. (PERSICO) 20 ILCS 2005/2005-40 was 20 ILCS 2005/71 in part 30 ILCS 805/8.25 new Amends the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois. Makes changes in the Department of Nuclear Safety Law in a Section concerning the powers vested in the Environmental Protection Agency. Provides that the Environmental Protection Agency is not required to perform analytical services for community water supplies to determine compliance with containment levels for radionuclides. Provides that community water supply operators may request the Department of Nuclear Safety to perform analytical services to determine compliance with contaminant levels of radionuclides. Requires the Department of Nuclear Safety to adopt rules establishing fees for testing the water supplies. Provides that community water supply operators that choose not to participate in the Department's testing programs must perform their own analysis of all drinking water to determine radionuclide contaminant levels. Requires that all fees collected under this Section be deposited in the Radiation Protection Fund. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement. Effective immediately. SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1. Provides that rules adopted by the Department of Nuclear Safety concerning the fees charged for the testing of community water supply samples shall reasonably reflect the direct and indirect cost of the testing. FISCAL NOTE (Department of Nuclear Safety) The Department currently incurs approximately $600,000 in unreimbursed annual costs for performing the types of tests that are called for in SB 880. Lacking a dedicated source of funds, costs for this testing are paid from the Nuclear Safety Emergency Preparedness Fund. The Department will be able to recover its costs incurred for performing radionuclide testing of drinking water samples for public water systems through implementation of a new fee. These costs will be borne by public water systems, rather than the entities that pay fees into the Nuclear Safety Emergency Preparedness Fund.
